Okay, so this has to do some more complicated problems then. Well, there is this thing I remember about weird graphics. This is caused when you set some settings (through some graphics-driver-manager-stuff) to high and then the game tries to run with those settings and eventually fails. So. Radeon series card ya say? That card comes with this Catalyst Software Suite, right? So try to, through the Cataclyst center, change any anti-aliasing, anisotropic filtering and other game-related (it's under a "3d" tab i think) settings to "auto" or "program controlled" or "application setting" or something like that. After this, restart your computer and try again. Hopefully that works! If not, invite your friend to a pineapple-party to cheer him up. edit: Removed typos
